as a fan of both fighters, i dont feel that i will be rooting for either in this one. however, this fight holds a certain similarity to penn v sanchez for me. sure sanchez is an exemplary fighter, as is hardy. but i feel that it is hard to hold them to the same caliber and class as penn and gsp. i'm extremely excited to see how hardy handles the athleticism that gsp holds. and excited to see what gsp has in store for hardy's unique striking style and power. but all in all, i feel that the fight just may go the same way penn/sanchez did. but with gsp controlling hardy with his wrestling and strength. gonna be a good show regardless.
